Flashman
by George MacDonald Fraser
Christmas Holiday
by W. Somerset Maugham
During an all-expenses-paid trip to Paris, a Christmas present from his father, Charley Mason encounters Lydia, a woman who will change his life forever, a tragic, self-destructive creature left homeless, fatherless, and displaced by the Russian Revolution, who pines for her distant criminal lover, in a classic novel about the aftermath of World War I.
Green Shadows, White Whale
by Ray Bradbury
When a prestigious writer, an egocentric film director and an infamous great white whale all converge on the Emerald Isle, the result is more priceless than a pot of gold. And no mere leprechaun could conjure up such irresistible situations and memorable characters; the magic comes from the pen of the master himself-Ray Bradbury. In 1953, a young writer is summoned to Ireland by the brilliant but terrifying titan of cinema, John Huston. The apprehensive scribe's quest is to capture on paper the fiercest of all literary beasts-Moby Dick-in the form of a workable screenplay so the great director can begin filming. But from the moment he sets foot on Irish soil, the author embarks on an unexpected odyssey more enthralling than anything he had dared imagine: he gradually penetrates the shrouded mysteries of Ireland and its utterly beguiling residents. Meet congenial IRA terrorists, tippling men of the cloth, impish playwrights, and the boyos at Heeber Finn's pub. In a land where myth is reality, poetry is plentiful, and life's misfortunes are always cause for celebration, Green Shadows, White Whale is the grandest tour of Ireland you'll ever experience-with the irrepressible Ray Bradbury as your enthusiastic guide.
Anything Considered
by Peter Mayle
Bennett is an English expatriate living in France with a champagne taste and a beer bankroll. Happy-go-lucky and a bit roguish, he places an ad in the International Herald Tribune offering his services -- any services. He pursues a response from a wealthy Englishman named Julian Poe who has developed a means of producing truffles and is close to cornering the immensely lucrative truffle market. Bennett signs on and finds himself in Monaco, where he is able to live in a style to which he has always wished to become accustomed (including eating to his heart's content -- a Mayle trademark!). Soon the Sicilian and Corsican Mafiosi intrude and Bennett is joined by the beautiful and experienced (in all ways) Anna. Ham-fisted goons, gendarmes working at cross purposes, French village busybodies, and an order of monks dedicated to the god Bacchus all play a role in the surprising, and more than a little satisfying, denouement.
